treatment options

[drromero]

I am a family practice physician. I have a patient that needs treatment for h. pylori gastritis but she is allergic to penicillins, tetracyclines, and erythromycin-type antibiotics. I cannot find an appropriate treatment regimen to suit her. Any ideas?

You can use "crushed garlic" at least 3-4 cloves a day. But garlics must be crushed otherwise it doesn't...

i've just started the garlic. good thing I like it, but I don't know that those around me will



here is on some of the other ALTERNATIVES I am trying, and am reposting from another post of mine elsware on the forum , as it was not well recieved in that section. I hope this information can help someone feel better:



after too many failed attempts to treat this with conventional medicine and now allergies to the antibiotics, I am going to give herbal alternatives a real shot.

I've done a lot of reasearch and found journal articals of studies done on things like coconut (monolaurin), brocolli sprouts (sulphoraphane) which have been shown to kill HP. HP doesn't become resistant to monolaurin , so I've read. I do know drinking coconut milk is very soothing on my stomache much better than regular milk which is hard to digest and creates acid. Its also tastes wonderful

I've also read of a certain kind of acidopholis that is supose to be antagonistic to HP, mastic gum, oregano oil, and a few other things. I am not sure if I should combine these with other things I tolerate well like an acid blocker and the bizmuth or just stick to herbals. I'm planning on doing a good long course then get tested if I can, to see if it realy has had an effect on the HP.

If anyone has info or luck with these products mentioned or other suggestions please post them, thanks.


of note on nutrition:
go on youtube and look up "the truth about food" and the "evolution diet" they had some very interesting health results. Seeing as how plants like brocolli can have an effect against H.PYLORI, SHOWN in STUDIES , a diet of this type may be helpful for anyone with digestive problems, and is a very healthy diet in general for most it would seem.


I'm not on here trying to sell anything , I am tryign to survive and help others. I read the desparate pleas on here (of which there are many) of whom conventional medicine has failed. If I find something that even gives symptomatic relief (isn't all most medicines do now anyway, instead of cure?) I want people to know.
I am going to be try an new combonation or herbs this month and see if they are more effective. I'm going to keep trying until I hit on something that realy works, or die trying.


Prayers for everyone suffering from this horrible illness.
